While you might be correct, most connections are reported as megaBITS per second. For example, AT&T's highest grade of residential DSL service is 6 Mbps, which would result in 46 day download. Comcast goes up to 16 Mbps, which is 17 days. -Robert Rohde _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
